(Positive) Okayy so, I checked back to see if there was an update and, god got a couple things to say:I don't remember the prostitution matter much, that said prostitution is INCREDIBLY RARELY because they want to do it and much MUCH more often because they need to or have been coerced into it, so no need to bash the girl as far as I remember and seen here, I don't reckon we know the reasons she does it, nor if she will continue, stories have character development, give the dev(s?) a chance ffs. (Although I do have to agree that the 3 huge crashout paragraphs are monumental and made me laugh when I saw how long it was)
She does give a reason. Her dad lost his job and turned deadbeat, drinking away his issues and treating her like shit, so she fell to prostitution since it is guaranteed easy pay and she has to pay for rent AND her dad's drinking habit.
The game is only really setting her up as a friend at this point and a lot of people are okay with that. Not every hole needs to be conquered.
I mean with their(the people complaining) logic, even if Chika didn't exist the game would still be netorare in some form since Miharu is madly in love with you and you end up fucking other girls. Hell, even that one girl in the student council could give a perfect example of what the player(not the MC, the actual player) is like to the other girls. She wants to fuck you, and does end up fucking you but you end up fucking other people. Oh no, ntr(and that isn't actually ntr based on definition so they're just complaining)! Yet no one complains until they're the ones being cucked. Gooners. Fucking jokes.
Ohhhh now I remember the girl! Then yeah, it's a choice of necessity, I do hope that she will quit if MC gets the means to compensate and/or she becomes a central love interest, that said yeah prostitution exists, it's just very rarely shown in media, if anything GG for having the balls to piss of a few people to follow through with your vision of the game (P.S. though, there's netorare and netori, and both are from the MC point of view by definition, that's why people don't really complain unless it's netorare, that being said, complaining about there being soft netorare is definitely a bit much, especially if they like netori because that's just netorare to someone else, literally. I don't remember the relations between LIs, but sidenote that if they know about the other LIs and are okay with it it's harem and although I get how one could see ressemblance between harem and netorare/netori, there is a clear distinction (Unless, of course, there is another element that makes it so)
I didn't unlock the h scenes with Ayase so I'm not 100% about her stance but I'm pretty sure there is no real attraction there, Miharu gets jealous and upset when she sees you with other girls so there's that. Either way, why complain about it one way but not the other? Double standards. It's not even soft ntr. Nor is it cuckold in any way. It's just a character in a main friend role doing what she literally said that she does and gooners wanting exclusivity.
MC doesn't see her sexually nor romantically. The only time he does is if you choose to fuck her. Which is after she tells you her situation. And even then it is only in that situation. I don't believe the story really shows her in a way that you would want exclusivity at this point in the story. Later on however, MC might develop feelings. But that's obviously going to be WAY after you help her get out of that situation. So again, no ntr. No cucking.
